IMHO: No.
As propagation improves, the contest activity will pick up.
And that being said, I don't see a practical method of implementing a Multi
transmitter category in any single band contest.

Subject: [CQ-Contest] 10M Multi Operator Category - A change?
The 10M contest is one of the few contests that has a Multi-Single class
which only allows for one signal on at a time and has no Multi-2 or
Multi-Multi category. Obviously, Multi-Multi doesn't make much since but a
Multi-2 and a Mutli-Single with a 10 minute and multiplier rule would allow
a group of people to be a lot more enthused to participate than the current
multi-single. Currently, you are forced to try and toggle back and forth
between 2 stations, one mult hunting and one running or simply having one
station and multiple operators sharing time.neither of which is the most fun
way to have multiple operators with a 2 mode contest.
I would like to suggest as the 10M prop is finally showing some signs of
life and a good 5 years ahead of us with enough to make the 10M contest
interesting again, that the ARRL consider changing the Multi Operator
category to include Mult-Single 10 min/mult and M2 with no more than one
transmitter allowed per mode.
Any comments? How do we do this?
